Rob Kindler, Partner at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP In this episode of the M&A Science podcast, Kison Patel sits down with Rob Kindler, a uniquely positioned dealmaker whose career has spanned both sides of the M&A table—law and investment banking. Rob previously led global M&A at Morgan Stanley and is now a senior partner at Paul Weiss. With 44 years of experience, he’s seen firsthand how the roles of lawyers and bankers have evolved, what makes a deal succeed or fail, and how today’s regulatory, activist, and valuation pressures are reshaping M&A execution. Things you will learn: -
Why legal advisors are now the first call in M&A, not the last -
How corporate development teams have replaced bankers in early-stage deal sourcing -
Why regulatory strategy and shareholder approval planning can make or break a deal -
How to negotiate effectively by predicting “the end of the movie” ________________________ Sponsored by DealRoom—where M&A chaos meets its match. Still stuck in spreadsheet hell?
